Interesting enterprise application
trends that will take over the
ecommerce world in 2018

Recently, Google surprised us all by unveiling
the developer preview version of Android P and
with iOS 12 speculated to be released in August
2018; this year 2018 is likely to see a major
change in enterprise app development.

Enterprise application development has been
the centre of innovation for several years now
and this year may be the year in which mobile
applications are revolutionised completely.
Enterprise mobile application development
companies have predicted several promising
trends that would take on the world of app
development by a wave in the year 2018.

Just like me, all the curious mobile users eagerly
await to know what this year has in store for
mobile application development services. That
is why, after hours of research along with expert
mobile app developers, I have compiled a list of
mobile application features that you can look
forward to this year:

Augmented reality as well as virtual reality has
set notable trends in the gaming industry. Now,
their onset over enterprise mobile applications is
not far away. With the intent of offering a
personalised experience, several businesses have
been turning to AR to sell their products.
AR and VR:

The clothing industry and the home decor
industry are the first to turn
to AR and VR technologies to offer a physical
shop-like experience.
The sole reason app developers are drawn to
integrate AR and VR technologies in their apps is
to satisfy the desire of the company to present
their products and services in a more exuberant
way.

Google launched a new feature called instant apps
in the previous year. This feature enables the users
to use the app directly from the Play Store without
actually downloading it. This way, users can try out
the app and download it only if they feel the need
to.
Instant apps:

This feature has already been adopted by a few
of the apps and many others will follow the suit.
This feature is impressive and may be
introduced in several enterprise mobile
applications for Android OS. This feature is
absent in iOS currently.

With the increasing amount of personal data users
store on their smartphones, cybersecurity has
become a basic concern. With this, the enterprise
application solutions need to be so designed that
the consumer data remains completely safe while
using the app.
Security:

There has been a rapid increase in the rate of
cybercrimes in recent years and a thorough analysis
of all the existing enterprise applications revealed
that more than 70% are prone to cyber-attacks. That
is why; the primary concern of the
enterprise mobile application development
services has been redirected to consumer data
safety.
The app developers are focused on securing the app
code and enhance the encryptions and
authorisations.

AMP stands for Accelerated Mobile Pages. This is an
initiative started by Google in collaboration with
Twitter to create mobile versions of web pages that
are faster to load across all mobile devices. This,
when integrated with enterprise apps, will reduce
the bounce rate of visitors.
AMP:

Also, there is another technique that is gaining
popularity for the same purpose - Lazy loading.
This is a smart way of displaying the webpage
simultaneously while loading, thus avoiding to
make the user wait till the complete page load.
The key aim of AMP and lazy loading lies in
reducing the downtime taken by the web pages
to load and thus, speed up the app interface.

There are several trends to look forward to in the
field of enterprise app development in the year
2018. Some ongoing trends of 2017 like cloud
computing, the blockchain, etc. are expected to
gain more momentum this year. So, if you are
planning to get enterprise mobile application
development services,
Summing up

you better make sure you ask the app developers
to include the above-mentioned trends while
designing the app for your enterprise.
